I am in the 'language boondocks ' here. I am talking about doing a POST from a mainframe language called NATURAL! Perl is available on the mainframe in the Linux or Unix Systems Services environment, neither of which interface seamlessly with the traditional z.OS environment.
I am getting interested in the Macs. My son is a big advocate of that. __________________________________________ Ranga Nathan / CSG Systems Programmer - Specialist; Technical Services; BAX Global Inc.

They are are handy for >doing stuff like this. If you install these scrips on a Mac, be sure not to overwrite the standard Unix "head" program with the "HEAD" script. Remember, the Mac OS X file system is not case-sensitive! I learned this the hard way. Fortunately, I was able to easily recover the overwriten "head" file from a backup disk. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
